always 3 artillery per game in ranked battles, but rarely any in randoms any more, theories?

also in ranked battles the maps are mostly made up of the 'good' maps, malinovka, prokhorovka, murovanka. never seen Pilsen, paris, mountain pass, highway (worst map in game?), but as I have threaded before I hardly ever see malinovka or prokhorovka in random battles so why ranked get all the good maps?

Maybe if you had read betweeen the lines you know that SPG drivers going from one mode to another would explain the said imbalance.

But for others that may be interested: SPGs seem less attractive and people are abandoning them. Those who chose to remain with the class are trying the new mode because they want to, want the new gear etc. which will make SPGs decline in Random Battles and increase in Ranked Battles. Which is self-explanatory.

Easy to get tokens with a class that requires almost no skill.

If we would have been succesful, there would be no arty in game. Arty still is a-decease-that-kills-but-shall-not-be-mentioned-for-some-reason.

I fail to see the decline of SPG in random.

The only factors that could have impacted are the huge amount of city maps in rotation and the fact that they cannot form trolling platoon of clickers.

Ranked battles has a limited map rotation, I forget which ones but if you look up the news article about it then it tells you.
